they didn't even acknowledge him. i thought it was way too little for what i bring, anyway. [ laughs ] that's -- that's great. the gut-wrenching testimony in the january 6th hearing from victims of election fraud lies i'm shepherd smith this is the news on cnbc >> do you know how it feels to have the president of the united states target you? >> election workers describe what they've endured since president trump's attack >> we should invest on me that i'll be in jail with my mother saying things like be glad it's 2020 and not 1920.

>> and the pressure campaign on state officials to change the results of the election. >> what with would you have me do and he said just do it and let the court sort it out. >> trump had a direct and personal role in this effort >> reporter: on hearing on the massacre in uvalde, texas. >> there's compelling everyday that the law enforcement response was an abject failure >> the new claim that the door the classrooms was not locked. and one kept cops from taking down the shooter >> the officers had body armor, the children had none. >> reporter: the stunning revelations from uvalde. and the new images to help find three men who escaped from alcatraz live from cnbc, the facts, the truth "the news with

shepherd smith." >> good evening. today we heard testimony from the state officials who stood up to president trump and refused to help him overturn the election after he lost they knew the election fraud claims were bogus. they knew joe biden was the rightful winner in their swing states and they faced relentless pressure to falsely declare there was fraud. but they did not give in and they paid for that with the president's wrath, along with intimidation and violent threats from his supporters. arizona's republican state house speaker, rusty bauer testified about it how the president's lawyer, rudy giuliani, tried to convince him there was wide-spread voter fraud in his state but never provided any evidence to back up his dubious claims bauers describes a phone call with giuliani and president trump. >> he said they did have proof and i asked do you have names? for example, you have 200,000

illegal immigrants, some large number five or 6,000 dead people. etc. and i said do you have their names? yes. will you give them to me yes. the president interrupted and said give the man what he needs, rudy he said i will >> did you ever receive from him that evidence either during the call, after the call or to this day? >> never >> nothing in fact, bower said rudy giuliani later seemed to admit he had no proof. >> we have lots of theories. we just don't have the evidence. don't know ithat was a gaf or maybe he didn't think through what he said but both myself and others in my group, the three in my group and my counsel both remembered that specifically and afterwards we kind of laughed about it s >> bowers testifies in early

january, another lawyer, eastman, called him and urged him to decertify electors and replace them with pro-trump relectors to provide joe biden's victory. >> i said what would you have me do and he said just do it and threat court sort it out and i said you're asking me to do something that's never been done in history, the history of the united states. and i'm going to put my state through that without sufficient proof? and that's going to be good enough with me that i would put us through that, my state, that i swore to uphold, both in constitution and in law, no, sir. >> and what when he didn't, bower says a mob of trump supporters came inside arizona state house, calling for him by name

this is surveillance video of the crowd inside the building. among them the man now known as the qanon shawman. he would later storm the capitol january 6th. bowers described the intimidation he and his family endured outside their home, including his gravely-ill daughter in her final days >> we have various groups come by and they have had video trucks with with videos of me proclaiming me to be a ped ofile and corrupt politician arguing and threatening with neighbors and myself one gentleman with the three bars on his chest and he had a pistol and was threatening at my neighbor, not with the pistol but vocally. but it was disturbing. it was disturbing.

>> and that was just arizona in georgia, where trump lost by some 12,000 votes, a top official testified that president's team fixated on a nonsense theory that election workers had smuggled in ballots in suitcases president trump continued to promote that very claim, even after his own justice department told him it was not true georgia's republican secretary state testified his office investigated every single one of the president's election fraud claims none of them was true. in a now infamous phone call, president trump suggested he might face criminal charges if he didn't act on the election fraud claims >> the other so dead people voted and i think the number is close to 5,000 people. >> so, secretary, did your office investigate whether allegations were accurate? did 5,000 dead people in georgia

vote >> it's not accurate and they allege 10,315 dead people we found two dead people, when i wrote my letter to congress, that's dated january 6th subsequent to that, one, two, three, four. a total of four. >> and there's nothing wrong with saying that you've recalculated . >> mr. secretary, is there any way you could have lawfully changed the result in the state of georgia and somehow explained it away as a recalculation >> no, the numbers are the numbers. the numbers don't lie. >> the january 6th committee einvestigators say the pressure on state officials grew increasingly dangerous in the days leading up to the january 6th attack as vice president pence was preparing to certify joe biden's win at the capitol they played videos including some at the home of michigan secretary of state

>> free and honest elections >> outside my home and my stomach sunk and then you with my kids. i'm trying to put them to bed. >> i'm not advising now. >> the punishment for treason is death. s >> others, besides lawmakers, were also under threat we heard from a georgia election

worker who, along with her mother, became the target of a wild and debunked conspiracy theory senior congressional correspondent with her testimony. ylan >> the scheme to overturn the election was a threat to democracy. but it was also a threat to ordinary americans people like sha, who spent a decade working at elections in georgia until former president trump turned her into a target and unleashed a torrent of hateful online messages from his supporters >> a lot of threats wishing death upon me, telling me that i'll be in jail with my mother and saying things like be glad it's 2020 and not 1920 >> she shared her story live during today's hearing the committee played excerpts from her mother, ruby freeman

both were at the state farm arena where trimp and his allies falsely claimed a suitcase of ballots had been hidden. video they say shows the two women rigging the election and he named them 18 times with georgia's secretary of state >> there is nowhere i feel safe. nowhere. do you know how it feels to have the president of the united states target you? the president of the united states is supposed to represent every american, not to target one. but he targeted me, lady ruby. s a small business owner, a mother, a proud american citizen who stood up to help run an election in the middle of the pandemic >> none of what trump accused

these women of was true but supporters believe he tried to barge into the home of moss's grandfather and arrest her and claiming. and freaking me out, saying that there are people at her home and they -- you know, they knocked on the door and of course and just started pushing their way through. to make a citizen's arrest don't do nothing anymore i don't want to go anywhere. i second guess everything that i do effect my life in a major way. every way.

all because of lies. for me doing my job. >> rudy giuliani claimed that moss and her mother passed each other usb ports with state data. today moss said what her mother actually gave her was a ginger mint and as moss wiped away tears, ruby freeman tapped her daughter's arm and handed her a piece of candy again the committee said brave public servants kept democracy from breaking down and america may not be so lucky. >> we learn today there are two more people on the committee's list, one, the former white house counsel, the vice -- what did the vice chair, liz cheney, say? >> vice chair liz cheney told nbc that pat tried to do what is right and tried to stop trump's

plans for january 6th. after the hearing, she told reporters that the committee is continuing to reach out to try to secure his testimony. we know that another documentary film maker has also received a subpoena from the committee for his footage and interviews of trump's family and of the former president himself, both from before and after january 6th holder said he is fully cooperating with this investigation. >> live for us tonight thank you. today's hearing also revealed efforts to knowingly create and send fake election certificates they said groups of fake electors met in december of 2020, right after the election, all at the request of the trump campaign >> the battleground states falsely asserting that they were the, quote, dually elected electors from their state and submitted them and vice

president capacity here's what they look like as compared to the real ones. >> and they showed text messages between an aid to the republican senator, rob johnson and an aid to former vice president pence according to the texts, the aid suggested that senator johnson would hand deliver some of the fake documents to the vice president and pence's aid immediately said don't do that senator johnson's office responded today, denying that he was aware or involved in any way. deputy attorney general in the first bush administration. donald, the fake elector certificates that were made and sent, did that break a law and is that interest to the justice department >> i think it could. i think it's going to be seen as part of a much larger series of events i think there's a lot to look at there in terms of specifics. but the bigger picture, which i

think is overwhelming and again today i think the committee has hit a home run the ability to put forward detailed accounts of facts, which you very nicely summarized in the opening of your show that really nail down oand focus on something people suspected but not quite certain of and that is the degree of culpability of donald trump, the degree to which he's the central actor, he is the one driving all of this. he is the one who acts over the objections of his own supporters he is the one who shows just extraordinary disregard for the consequences of his actions, even for his own supporters. so, i think really we're just seeing in installments here, the case building day by day of culpability of donald trump, as

the central actor, something we might have suspected strongly but now we're coming to know it by seeing these facts. >> you said last week that you thought the justice department had a substantial case does today's hearing strengthen that >> i think it certainly does i think when you look at all of the specifics and you look at all of the ways trump himself, not only was involved but drove the process, the 67-minute phone call where he continues to beat on him and his colleague, gabriel sterling to get them to dawhat he wants. but so many other things that were talked about today. i think we're just building an overwhelming amount of information that puts donald trump at the center. and has him really overriding and disregarding his own people. >> thank you so much the next committee hearing is day after tomorrow

>> on thursday, we'll hear about another part of that scheme. his attempt to corrupt the country's top law enforcement body, the justice department to support his attempt to overturn the election. >> we'll have full coverage thursday night on the news on cnbc a stunning hearing today on law enforcement failures during the uvalde school massacre testimony that could have ended in three minutes the waiting for s.w.a.t. and for back up and for a classroom key e. today texas's top cop outlined why all of the waiting was a catastrophic error of police procedure. >> i don't care if you have flip-flops and wearing bermuda shorts, it doesn't matter. you go in. >> tonight, the mistakes made in a police operation now being called an abject failure >> the facts, the truth, the

an abject failure, that in a scathing testimony from the head of public safety, slamming the response to the rob elementary school shooting. testifying in front of a state hearing today, laying out a series of failures in the deadly shooting >> three minutes after entering into the building, there was a sufficient number of armed officers wearing body armor to isolate and neutralize the subject. the only thing stopping the hallway of dedicated officers from entering room 111 and 112 was the on scene commander, who decided to place the lives of officers before the lives of children >> three minutes in, those officers could have stopped the shooter who killed 17 students and two teachers

11 officers were already in at that point the states newspaper appears to show the video with officers in the hallway time stamped about 20 minutes after the shooter entered the school and officers with rifles and a shield today we learned they had as many as four shields mckrau says, at the district of the school police chief, they waited and waited some more. >> one error, 14 minutes and eight seconds. that's how long the children waited and teachers waited in rooms 111 to be rescued. and while they waited, the on scene commander waited for a radio and rifles then he waited for shields then he waited for s.w.a.t lastly, he waited for a key that was never needed the post columbine doctrine is clear and compelling and unambiguouses.

stop the killing, stop the dying. you can't do the former unless you -- you can't give the latter unlesses you give the former >> a key was never needed. remember reports that the door was locked not true he says school staff could only lock doors from the outside, allowing the gunman or anybody to get in at any point he said they had a device that would have allowed them to break in had it been locked. they never tried to use that device they also never needed it or the key. all they had to do was try to open the door. >> the door was unsecured and we've gone back and checked in our interviews did anybody touch the door and try it how about do you need a key? one of the things they teach you in active training, see if it's unlocked okay what we used to call a clue at that point

why not? and of course, no one had. >> he also testified those officers should not have waited for back up. according to a call log, chief asked for notification when the s.w.a.t. team arrived. >> one officer, that's enough. you don't have to wait for 11 or 12 or 15 or 30 one is enough. you're on the scene, you have an obligation to go in immediately engage the shooter and stop the shooting and -- stop the killing because there could be other ways to kill and stop the dying. that's preached, practiced and required in the state of texas and wasn't implemented >> the timeline released shows about 20 minutes after the shooting started, the department of public safety special agent arrived on scene somebody asked whether the kids are still in the classroom and the agent'ses response, if there is, then they just need to go to in 3:30 minutes later, y'all don't know if there's kids in there and an agent says if there's

kids in there, we need to go in there but they waited 53 more minutes before killing the shooter. he said on top of all of that, officers radios didn't work and as previously reported, the chief didn't bring one with him to the scene >> it's easy when i appear to be hypercritical of the on scene commander and i don't mean to be but the facts are the facts. mistakes were made that should have never happened that way and we can't allow that ever to happen in our profession this set our profession back a decade is what it did. >> the chief epreviously said he didn't consider himself the person in charge he assumed someone else had taken control. cnbc reports from austin where lawmakers held that hearing today. >> in the one-hour and 14 minutes police waited before killing the shooter, police investigators say the gunman fired at least six shots inside the classroom.

not clear if any teachers were killed by that gun fire. releasing new information on body camera videos from inside the school, including a line by police chief 51 minutes into this massacre. according to investigators, he said people are going to ask why we're taking so long we're trying to preserve the rest of a life they say the four-foot fence at rob elementary is too low to stop threats, a lack of controlled access points and clasroom doors are vulnerable to attacks. >> every time you look at a tragic situation, you see opportunities that we had to be able to stop that pathway towards that violence. >> reporter: the director of the states department of public safety revealing new information on the man who killed 21 people at rob elementary. >> he certainly took on the

persona of a school shooter in dress and demeanor >> he says the 18-year-old would walk around with a bag of dead cats s before buying guns, he bought hundreds of rounds online, using money fwraum joint bank account. he sent messages to friends hinting of a shooting and nothing was reported >> people sometimes blocked the subject from communication it would have been better if they had alerted somebody. >> he says the hour and 14 minute wait is intolerable he says the police chief was in the school calling for rifle os. >> you don't need a rifle. >> radios. >> radios never worked anyway. >> a s.w.a.t. and shields. >> you don't have time for a shield >> for that key he didn't knead. >> there's no shame at all, when you're chief and you have a six-man department to defer to

11% in two weeks that is extreme by almost any historical standard. in other words, the market very much primed for some kind of a bounce best day in a month. all of these down trends we've been in a down trend they have very sharp bounces usually they're fleeting one of them is going to stick. it will look like what happened today. way too soon to say this is the true bottom. we got through the fed rate hike last week. in some sense that will be enough to corral inflation. >> they say a recession is not inevitable but many business leaders disagree according to a recent survey from the conference board, more than 60% of ceos surveyed expect a recession by the end of next year or earlier. why the disconnect, mike >> well, it's inherently difficult, famously difficult to try to get any recession no official is going to say, guess what, we can't avoid a recession. you can argue saying something is not inevitable is not to deny

it's a higher probability. there's a slowdown underway. the fed is trying to slow down housing and auto sales with higher interest rates. it's somewhat working. there is a chance this very brief business cycle comes in by the end of next year nobody quite knows how to pinpoint it. >> mike santoli, thanks very much rising mortgage rates and record high home prices discouraging home buyers according to new data out from the national association of realtors, existing home sales in may dropped for the fourth month down 3.4% in april and more than 8% from a year ago even as home sales slowed, home prices set another record. the median existing home sales price in may hit nearly $408,000 up 15% year over year. it's the low supply that's pushing home prices higher analysts say inventory levels need to nearly double to cool the market here's cnbc's real estate
